interestingly enough, when i went into just looking up my reservation, i was able to add my mileage plan number so it showed up on my boarding pass, etc.

when checking in, it didn't work (kept giving me an error).

however, i got back on monday and the flight credit isn't on my account. i filled out a form asking for credit so we'll see how it goes.

i did put miles on my AA account before but starting now i plan to use my alaska account and try to build up to MVP status.
